What's With the Rabbit and Scissor Fingers Jo Jo?

'Jo Jo Rabbit' is a film about a young German boy who has an imaginary friend, but instead of a rabbit like in the movie 'Donnie Darko', this young boy's imaginary friend seems even more sinister, as his imaginary friend is Adolf Hitler.

At the time I saw 'Jo Jo Rabbit' I just happened to be reading a magazine about Jesus, which I had bought on a road trip in 2016 with a bunch of other interesting looking magazines I saw on a news stand -
Manilla, NSW

The magazines I bought in Manilla on the day

In that Jesus magazine was an article about the Easter Bunny where it mentions having to thank the Germans for the holiday tradition of the Easter Bunny being a symbol of fertility and new life.

It says in that magazine article that the German Lutherans introduced the Easter Hare into the springtime celebrations of Easter.

Also, in that article it mentions this holiday character strongly resembles another German holiday tradition: Santa Claus.

Later in the movie a stuffed rabbit is seen on a shelf in Jo Jo's home next to a stuffed (British?) lion.

Were Hitler's Eyes Blue or Not?

How Scissor-Fingers Won WWII?

Hitler was a Roman Catholic, so I don't know what he thought of the Lutheran's Easter Bunny, but Jo Jo gets the name of Rabbit from when he is mocked by his Nazi teachers for refusing to break the neck of a rabbit handed to him during a demonstration at a Hitler Youth camp.

The Nazis ended up killing the rabbit for him and Jo Jo runs off into the woods.

WARNING: Rabbit scene below shows rabbit getting killed. 

After Jo Jo's imaginary Hitler gives him a pep talk Jo Jo runs back and shows the kids how brave he is by snatching a live grenade out of the teacher's hand and throwing it into the forest, only for the grenade to bounce back off a tree and to fall right beside Jo Jo and going off and nearly killing him.

Jo Jo is more or less resurrected back to life with facial scarring and an injured leg.

Is that a rabbit you're making with your fingers Al?-)

V for Victory

"Crowley claimed to have invented Churchill’s use of the gesture in WWII as a magical foil to the Nazis’ use of the swastika.

Crowley passed this idea to friends at the BBC, and to the 

British Naval Intelligence Division through his connections in MI5, eventually gaining the approval of Winston Churchill.
The symbolism of the “V for Victory” refers to the story of Isis, Apophis, and Osiris, as it is illustrated in the 

Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram, first published by Crowley in 

The Equinox I, no. 3, in 1910.

In this ritual, the swastika is used to represent the mourning of Isis; and the “V” is used to symbolize Apophis or Typhon, the destroyer.

This symbolism explains Crowley’s use of the “V” as a foil to the swastika, since Apophis slays Osiris, thus causing Isis to mourn.
The “V” symbol also echoes the downward-pointing triangle, a symbol of Horus, the Crowned and Conquering Child of the 

New Aeon."

In Judaism, Rabbi is Hebrew for "teacher."
